question - i put my velvet spider in a bigger enclosure but im having trouble figuring out if shes eating. shes not an adult yet so will she still scavenge? i dropped some fruit flies and some cricket i cut up in the little entrance to her burrow but the cricket bits are still there. i plan on trying tong feeding a meal worm tomorrow (if that doesnt work im just gonna cut up the meal worm and put it at the entrance)

she is in a 3x3x3 (inches)

May need time to adapt / settle in to the new enclosure.
Scavenging is very probable.
Be sure to remove uneaten prey items
